<H3><A NAME="M3">DESCRIPTION</A></H3>
|
|
A bitmap is an image whose pixels can display either of two colors
|
|
or be transparent.
|
|
A bitmap image is defined by four things: a background color,
|
|
a foreground color, and two bitmaps, called the <I>source</I>
|
|
and the <I>mask</I>.
|
|
Each of the bitmaps specifies 0/1 values for a rectangular
|
|
array of pixels, and the two bitmaps must have the same
|
|
dimensions.
|
|
For pixels where the mask is zero, the image displays nothing,
|
|
producing a transparent effect.
|
|
For other pixels, the image displays the foreground color if
|
|
the source data is one and the background color if the source
|
|
data is zero.
|
|
|
|
<H3><A NAME="M4">CREATING BITMAPS</A></H3>
|
|
Like all images, bitmaps are created using the <B><A HREF=../Help/./image.n.html>image create</A></B>
|
|
procedure.
|
|
Bitmaps support the following <I>options</I>:
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M5"><B>:background </B><I>color</I></A><DD>
|
|
Specifies a background color for the image in any of the standard
|
|
ways accepted by Tk. If this option is set to an empty string
|
|
then the background pixels will be transparent. This effect
|
|
is achieved by using the source bitmap as the mask bitmap, ignoring
|
|
any <B>:maskdata</B> or <B>:maskfile</B> options.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M6"><B>:data </B><I>string</I></A><DD>
|
|
Specifies the contents of the source bitmap as a string.
|
|
The string must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated
|
|
by the <B>bitmap</B> program).
|
|
If both the <B>:data</B> and <B>:file</B> options are specified,
|
|
the <B>:data</B> option takes precedence.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M7"><B>:file </B><I>name</I></A><DD>
|
|
<I>name</I> gives the name of a file whose contents define the
|
|
source bitmap.
|
|
The file must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated
|
|
by the <B>bitmap</B> program).
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M8"><B>:foreground </B><I>color</I></A><DD>
|
|
Specifies a foreground color for the image in any of the standard
|
|
ways accepted by Tk.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M9"><B>:maskdata </B><I>string</I></A><DD>
|
|
Specifies the contents of the mask as a string.
|
|
The string must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated
|
|
by the <B>bitmap</B> program).
|
|
If both the <B>:maskdata</B> and <B>:maskfile</B> options are specified,
|
|
the <B>:maskdata</B> option takes precedence.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M10"><B>:maskfile </B><I>name</I></A><DD>
|
|
<I>name</I> gives the name of a file whose contents define the
|
|
mask.
|
|
The file must adhere to X11 bitmap format (e.g., as generated
|
|
by the <B>bitmap</B> program).
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<H3><A NAME="M11">IMAGE PROCEDURE</A></H3>
|
|
When a bitmap image is created, Tk also creates a new procedure
|
|
whose name is the same as the image.
|
|
This procedure may be used to invoke various operations
|
|
on the image.
|
|
It has the following general form:
|
|
<PRE>(<I>imageName option </I>?<I>arg arg ...</I>?)</PRE>
|
|
<I>Option</I> and the <I>arg</I>s
|
|
determine the exact behavior of the procedure. The following
|
|
procedures are possible for bitmap images:
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M12">(<I>imageName </I><B>cget</B> <I>option</I>)</A><DD>
|
|
Returns the current value of the configuration option given
|
|
by <I>option</I>.
|
|
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the
|
|
<B>image create bitmap</B> procedure.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<DT><A NAME="M13">(<I>imageName </I><B>configure</B> ?<I>option</I>? ?<I>value option value ...</I>?)</A><DD>
|
|
Query or modify the configuration options for the image.
|
|
If no <I>option</I> is specified, returns a list describing all of
|
|
the available options for <I>imageName</I> (see <B>Tk_ConfigureInfo</B> for
|
|
information on the format of this list). If <I>option</I> is specified
|
|
with no <I>value</I>, then the procedure returns a list describing the
|
|
one named option (this list will be identical to the corresponding
|
|
sublist of the value returned if no <I>option</I> is specified). If
|
|
one or more <I>option-value</I> pairs are specified, then the procedure
|
|
modifies the given option(s) to have the given value(s); in
|
|
this case the procedure returns an empty string.
|
|
<I>Option</I> may have any of the values accepted by the
|
|
<B>image create bitmap</B> procedure.
